Cruising Europe

Europe is the world's second-largest cruise market, offering an extraordinary tapestry of experiences across the Mediterranean, Northern Europe, British Isles, and Canary Islands. The continent's compact geography means a single cruise can visit multiple countries, cultures, cuisines, and UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

The Western Mediterranean covers Spain, France, Italy, and the islands of Corsica, Sardinia, and the Balearics. The Eastern Mediterranean explores Greece, Croatia, Turkey, and Montenegro. Northern European cruises navigate Scandinavia's fjords, the Baltic's elegant capitals, and Iceland's volcanic landscapes.

European cruising peaks in summer (June–August) when the Mediterranean basks in sunshine and the fjords glow under the midnight sun. Shoulder seasons (April–May, September–October) offer pleasant weather, fewer crowds, and lower prices. The Canary Islands provide winter warmth for year-round European cruising.
